The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP), through its Weapon Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) division in Mechanicsburg, is seeking eligible contractors to manufacture scuttle valves (NSN 1356-01-077-6037 SW94). This procurement will require contractors to provide labor, material, and facilities necessary for manufacturing the specified item. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, indicating a sole-source procurement strategy. The Government does not possess or cannot provide the data necessary to perform the required repairs or manufacture of the item, making contractor capability and expertise critical evaluation factors. All responsible sources are invited to submit capability statements demonstrating their ability to manufacture the scuttle valve, with responses due by March 23, 2026. This pre-solicitation notice is not a competitive request for proposals but rather a sources sought notice to identify qualified contractors capable of fulfilling the Government's requirements.

This procurement carries no set-aside designation, meaning it is open to all eligible contractors regardless of business size or socioeconomic status. The notice does not identify any incumbent contractors or current sources for this item. No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, nor are specific quantity requirements or production timelines detailed. The Government reserves sole discretion to determine whether to compete this contract based on responses received; however, all capability statements submitted prior to the March 23, 2026 closing date will be evaluated. Additionally, source approval may be required, and the Government will not delay contract award pending completion of the source approval process, indicating that contractors should be prepared to meet any applicable security or qualification requirements for manufacturing weapons-related components.
